It seems the vertical swipe gives better results when there is a strong certial line to ground it - your tree trunk. The color, exposure, composition are excellent. What shutter speed did you use? I'm experimenting with ICM, but have yet to get a good shot. |

This gives a wonderful feeling of the excitement and joy of childhood. Well done. You blended the two images perfectly. The colors are very bright, so desaturation was a good idea. The image is indeed dynamic. |

Hmmm. That little rock cairn in the foreground would make a good subject for focusing on the foreground. We all know what mountains look like. But these mountains are grand and worthy of center stage. The many shades of blue are lovely and add to the cold, rainy mood. Did you have to enhance them? |

This is an original way to use ICM. Most people swipe or zoom. The B&W treatment emphasizes the direction of movement very well. You take a lot of pictures with your phone, and they are very good. When I use the camera phone the results are unintentional camera movement. |

Denise, I like your second version better. The stem length to my eye is perfect. The colors of the background seem just a bit more saturated. For me, that emphasizes the rose. Ths background and stem length fall into the category of personal preferences. Probably everyone you ask will have a different opinion. She is a lovely rose, graceful as a ballet dancer. |

The flipping and cropping are well done. The yellow line from the left leads right to the flower. The darker green on the right keeps the eye from going right out of the image. The backlight on the flower is much more interesting than front or even side light. You still have detail in the shadow side of the flower. Nicely done. |

Dandilions don't deserve their bad reputation. Their cheerful faces look like a child's drawing of the sun with all the rays shining out. The seed heads are fun to play with. Remember tickling your friends faces, blowing the little parachutes away, trying to catch those same parachutes? This composition is different from most dandilion shots - a head-on close-up portrait. You made good use of the focus stacking technique. Witta got me thinking about where to go next. Let's see what you come up0 with. |

What an amazing capture! The dancing couple must have felt that they were the only people in the world at that moment, joyful for whatever life had brought them. The color version matches their mood better than B&W (can be cold). I also agree with Witta's changes. |

I agree that the texture of the bark is a big contrast to the flowers. This is probably why I rejected this image in the past. The colored artifacts are most likely mistakes, but I found them oddly charming - like colored sugar crystals. I do like your 'necklace' with the pink crystal center bottom. Thanks for getting my imagination going. |

When first seeing the image,, not yet reading the 'how-to', I thought, "This should be on a wall." So you nailed it. What made you think of adding color variations, and why did you pick those colors? If I was alittle girl photographer, I would want to grow up like you. |
